In the silence of the night it's always on my troubled mind. these mistakes have tolled the bells you feared before. through all of this, i swear i know what i've done. don't try to tell me that i'm wrong. you can keep your hopes up but i'll always bring them down. i'll bring you down. but you never held my hand, you never brought me back. bring me back. you never held my hand. you just brought me down. in the silence of the night it's always on my troubled mind. don't let me bring you down.

Bells

are we alone or are we just searching for what we know. i know this house was never a home, i know what it's like to be cold. i know this house was never a home. now we're all left with a heart of stone, hear the noise of the bells as they toll. let's gather together all the people, we're not alone. the fool tolls the bells and they all step in time. don't believe a word they say, the dream is gone, we're all the same. are we alone or are we just searching for what we know.

i know i've never known a home, but goddamn i'd love to someday. i'd love to find comfort in my own skin. i've never known a home but i need to rest my head. whats it like to be safe, what it like to feel home. dig a foxhole and bury yourself. in the dirt is all i've known. dig a foxhole and bury yourself. where will i die. where will we die. how will we die. home is where we die.

here i am, have i said too much or not enough at all. when you're standing on your tower just waiting to see me fall is it clear. when the last words i spoke were never enough for you, will you hear me out. will you let me in. and when all thats left is to hear me say, "i'm not enough, i'm giving in". and when all thats left is an apology, "i'm sorry for who i've been". and i'm tying a noose around my neck. can you feel me scream? it's like i'm tying a noose around my neck. can you feel me scream? here i am, have i said too much or not enough at all. when you're standing on your tower just waiting to see me fall, is it clear. it's like i'm tying a noose around my neck, can you feel me scream.
